ACHENBACH, R E; PITTARO, E H; SANCHEZ, G F  and  SCHROH, R G. Crohn disease with cutaneous mucosal involvement. Rev. argent. dermatol. [online]. 2008, vol.89, n.1, pp.14-20. ISSN 1851-300X.

Two cases of Crohn disease are reported, both with cutaneous-mucosal involvement. The first patient showed lesions of the so called "Metastatic Crohn disease" in the legs, whereas the second one presented severe compromise in the perinealgenital, osteomal and oral mucosae. After the remission of the above mentioned, the patient suffered from leucocytoclastic vasculitis in the lower limbs. In both cases, the typical granulomatous lesions of the Crohn disease were found both in the skin and intestinal wall.

Keywords : Crohn disease; Cutaneous mucosal involvement.
